Level 2: [ 大话西游 A Chinese Odyssey (1995) ] Stephen Chow movie series, the OG subversion work of JTTW with WK crazy romance story, starting point of derivative work of the classic. Level 3: [ 悟空传 WuKong (2000) ] Web Novel by JinHeZai which inspired by Chow work, a dark re-interpretation of WK life story with a lot conspiracy, was a big hit in Chinese internet at the time.

"Black Myth: Wukong" has been generating increasing criticism among Chinese players, particularly regarding its storyline. The game, which draws inspiration from 《Wukong Zhuan》 and some of Stephen Chow's movies, deviates significantly from the original Journey to the West and the traditional story of Sun Wukong. Journey to the West is rooted in the historical journey of Xuanzang, who traveled to India to obtain sacred Buddhist scriptures, with the mythological elements serving to emphasize the perseverance and resilience of the pilgrimage team in overcoming numerous challenges. However, the game introduces themes of conspiracy, rebellion, and tragic love, which are far removed from the essence of the original tale. This divergence from the traditional narrative has sparked dissatisfaction among many players in mainland China. Additionally, the films and animations referenced in the game's promotional videos bear little connection to the Journey to the West story, further alienating fans of the classic Chinese epic.
It is a little bit challenging to truely understand the meaning if this game if you don't truely understand journey to the west. Its position in Chinese culture is kind of equivalent to the status of Bible in western culture

However, the deities were still salty about getting beat up by a monkey so they want to level his mountain. wukong thinks its unfair because he completed his assignment from the budda. so he fight all the gods as you seen in the intro. the monkey you play is the "destined one" who's suppose to retrieve all the relics and bring back wukong whos trapped in a stone

They want to sell it to as many people as possible and there are way more Chinese with a mobile phone, than with a PS5, Xbox or an expensive gaming computer.
I still don't understand why so much nationalism comes behind this. I am playing it but it's so boring hearing "China China China". Something like 90% of the sales and reviews are all from mainland China.
India can't even make a proper mobile game. They tried to ban chinese gaming apps and created a gaming app called "FAU-G" as replacement of PUBG. it floped and failed within few months😂
@@TigerTiger-fx3ps It's totally different story. I watched both movies and their characters are not even similar except for being monkey warriors. Wukong is rebellious, trouble maker, arrogant and won't follow the monk if not for the headband which hurt him whenever the monk reads mantra. Hanuman on the other hand is all about his loyalty to Rama. Why Journey to the west is so famous is because Wukong's character grow from being so hopeless to become **spoiler**. Ramayana is also very famous but Hanuman is all about the great general of Rama who helped him won his wife back. He has no potential to become an antagonist to begin with.

The events is set many years(dunno specifically) after journey to the west. Which means after he attained godhood.
But this is not their 1st AAA game ?
its china first AAA game, that is also as advertised, mainly utilizing unreal engine 5
South korea and America always keep exporting their culture and influence globally, perhaps it's time for China to bring something new to the table.
BM Wukong is certainly a great step in that direction, the game is very nice to say the least 👍✨
it's not new, there are many movies, animations or games with the monkey king, it's just that this is the first time they made it into a AAA game.
Such as dragon ball or any references to monkey usually refer to sun wukong
The reason which slowing the spreading of China soft power is not due to lack of content and we all know that. Chinese movies have been consumed internationally for decades.
@@kleec495 u mean hk movies?
@@lyhthegreat HK, mainland, TW movies basically have the same content. HK and TW have many movies about mythologies and dynasties of China.
that one german player... these designs may be totally new for him, but for me it was pretty much "Been there, done that"
Because Germany is living in the stone age?
game of the year
do we play as a weaked sun wukong?
His impostor, the last tale of sun wukong
Just wait for the next game, you will get a stronger Sun Wukong in a higher level game.
Pretty sure just another monke which is not wukong.
Go China 🇨🇳
i wish oneday india will make a AAA game of hanuman ji that will be more insane story
I think Hanoman and Wukong are the same person
@@AbuShivaToyibno they are not. WuKong was born from a rock while Hanuman was born from a human. WuKong has 72 transformations and used weapons are different. Looked and dressed differently from Hanuman. Apart from they both are monkeys, they are nothing alike.
But not the exact same story and he means a game for Hanuman ji
I have a feeling future chapters will focus on the other 2 protectors as central protagonists, and their backstories too.
Don't think so. I mean do you want to play as the pigsy?
@@kleec495 and why not?
the gameplay is so bad just like Sekiro but Sekiro is years ago and Elden Ring is a better concept of fighting style in my opinion.
You are not allowed to critizise the game. If you do, you are woke, sinophobic and a 🤖
Western countries belike: why are there no LGBTQ and feminism elements in this game???
You sound like a person that wakes up in the morning, hating the west, eating his breakfast while hating the west, going to work doing his job, talking trash about the west with his co-workers, eating lunch while hating the west, going home, still hating the west, eating dinner while hating the west, going to sleep and dreaming about how bad the west is, every day.
The type of person nobody wants to drink a bear with, except for other people like you, who also only think about how how bad the west is.
Journey To The West is a Chinese Buddhist classical novel. Buddhism has no issue with LGBT or women, cry. So there is no need to bring this up in situations where it doesn't matter.
Sun go kong atau bukan????
Betul ini Sun Go Kong

I grew up watching Dragon Ball 😍
What story does Black Myth: Wukong tell?
It tells that since ancient times, from heaven to earth, there has always been a global order that maintains the status quo, and there have always been heroes who want to change this order.
Ahhhhhh, now I understand why there is such a hype about it.
That sounds like a threat to the CCP. Thanks, pal!
Greetings, beautiful game, I love it. The beauty and richness of Chinese history and mythology, fantastic
Noone watches the Netflix version lol
Black Myth: Wukong - original story back dated to 16th century 1592 ( China Ming Dynasty )
- wikipedia
Nobody in china take wiki as a credible source of information.
You tried to create sterile polemics about the game, now that it's a huge success you are trying to milk it, two faces journalism
That’s journalism in every country.
@@treadlightly76 No. Normally one country's journalism sticks to one side. It's the other country's journalist's that are talking it down or praise it afterwards.
pwelele is kind of right with his comment. This is more common for Chinese journalism.

It's funny that JTTW are view as no diversity and mysoginist by activist gamers.. what amazing woke people 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sun Wukong = Son Goku
Yes, I am glad someone noticed. The Japanese liberally “borrowed” a lot from Journey to the West. Goku’s name, Goku’s stick, ox king, the fire mountain, banjo fan …
Sun Wukong > Son Goku
@@cfwin1776 If china was doing it, then you would say steal. But because japan did it, it is called borrowed 😂
@@body187j3x1 Dragon Ball > Journey to the West
@@close_all_tabs Dragon Ball cannot be > Journey to the West, because Dragonball was inspired by Journey to the West, so Journey to the west will always be greater than Dragonball. Without Journey to the West then Dragonball wouldn't even have existed.
finally something new that China did
Your comment has to be sarcasm, because the story of "Journey to the West" / "The Monkey King" has been told like a thousand times by now.
I Love China So Much.
Because They Created Rich Games
And technology , Phone , More...
Love Visiting Cologne.
It's something close to Ashura's Wrath, which borrows some elements from Journey to the West.
It's something similar to Fantasy Westward Journey.
Not the first, pls check Genshin Impact
Mobile game first
Not console or pc game
@@OHHHHUSBANT yeay exactly mobile first then PC
@@OHHHHUSBANT Just wait one or two years and they will make a mobile version of Black Myth Wukong.
The game is not that big (in data) and could be easiely be downgraded to a more compact and slim mobile version.
I bet the developers had that in mind from the beginning. They want to sell it to as many people as possible and
there are way more Chinese with a mobile phone, than with a PS5, Xbox or an expensive gaming computer.
monke
We're not talking about you
Hmmm monke
lol even news channel covering this game
i love it, game is super fun and mostly based to the earth

much rather have a AAA game based on the condor trilogy
I thought antropomorphic animals (animals that talk and behave like people) are banned in China.
who told you that? falungong channels?

Is this some religious thing?

What's the difference?
My Monkie Kid fans where u at
Taiwan make potato chips, yes more likel
I still don't understand why so much nationalism comes behind this. I am playing it but it's so boring hearing "China China China". Something like 90% of the sales and reviews are all from mainland China.

Please work hard, but a strong gaming industry can only be born when the per capita income exceeds $10,000
Bruh you can't even make decent mobile game let alone a triple a game

Wukong symbolizes FREEDOM. Freedom.from.oppression. Freedom.from tyrrany. Freedom to determine one's destiny.
True.
Freedom from sanctions and regime change by #1 superpower and its minions and
Its Hanumaan
If you learn Wukong's personality, not sure if you want to relate him with Hanuman. They have totally different personalities.
@@kleec495 actually, journey tot ejh west is a chnese iteration of the Indan Ramayan. the underlying stort is the exact same i.
@@TigerTiger-fx3ps It's totally different story. I watched both movies and their characters are not even similar except for being monkey warriors. Wukong is rebellious, trouble maker, arrogant and won't follow the monk if not for the headband which hurt him whenever the monk reads mantra. Hanuman on the other hand is all about his loyalty to Rama. Why Journey to the west is so famous is because Wukong's character grow from being so hopeless to become **spoiler**. Ramayana is also very famous but Hanuman is all about the great general of Rama who helped him won his wife back. He has no potential to become an antagonist to begin with.
@@TigerTiger-fx3psthats like saying Quran is just bible but Arab version.
Sun wonkong is based on a "Journey to the west" a chinese novel published in the 16th century during the Ming dynasty and attributed to Wu Cheng'en. It is regarded as one of the greatest Classic Chinese Novels, and has been described as arguably the most popular literary work in East Asia.
Journey to the West has strong roots in Chinese folk religion, Chinese mythology, Chinese Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoist and Buddhist folklore, and the pantheon of Taoist immortals and Buddhist bodhisattvas are still reflective of certain Chinese religious attitudes today, while being the inspiration of many modern manhwa, manhua, manga and anime series. Enduringly popular, the novel is at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a source of spiritual insight, and an extended allegory. a literary and religious figure best known as one of the main players in the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West 西遊記
Don't fooking mix Chinese mythology to ur hindu myths which are 2 different things.
So that does it tell? 😶
I hope this adaptation of journey to the west will come to…the west? 我爱孙悟空！❤

china can export anything at ease but when importing the world had to bow down and respect, like acknowledging their imaginary 9 dash line
